Flower Show Sponsorship Opportunities
The Garden’s biennial Flower Show features the region’s most exceptional creations in Floral Design, Horticulture, Photography and Botanical Arts. Complementing the artistry displayed in these judged competitions are an interactive Education Exhibit and an Ikebana showcase.

The Atlanta Botanical Garden gratefully accepts gifts from Donor Advised Funds (DAF). If you would like to apply a DAF grant toward support of the Atlanta Botanical Garden Flower Show, you are required by law to waive benefits associated with that donation. Benefits that will be waived include, but are not limited to, Garden guest passes, Flower Show tickets, Flower Show Preview Party tickets, and complimentary tickets and invitations to exclusive Garden events. Gifts made through these giving vehicles will therefore be recorded as declining benefits. Bifurcation* of gifts is not permitted, per IRS guidelines. Gifts made through family foundations and charitable IRA distributions are acknowledged detailing goods and services received if benefits are not declined. Please consult with your tax advisor if you have any questions.
*In the context of donations and DAFs, “bifurcation” refers to a “split gift” or donation where a portion of the gift is treated as tax-deductible and another portion is not. An example of gift bifurcation would be considering the portion of a contribution that covers the cost of the event ( food, entertainment, etc.) as a benefit to the donor, while considering the portion that goes directly to the charity as tax-deductible. Because DAFs are prohibited from facilitating bifurcated donations, a donor cannot use a DAF to pay for the tax-deductible portion of a gift while using personal funds for the non-tax-deductible portion, such as the value of an event ticket.
